This retrospective review of hair samples from pediatric patients indicated that microscopic hair examination might be a useful first-line investigation for diagnosing various genetic conditions.

This study found that storing horse hair follicles in RNAlater® at cool or room temperature for up to a week did not affect RNA integrity, suggesting it allows for flexible sample transport without immediate freezing.

This review aims to help medical practitioners understand inferential statistical methods to critically evaluate clinical trial design and analyses, but it doesn’t present new research findings.

This review outlines the transition from simple hair follicle organoids to immune-competent microphysiological systems, addressing limitations in replicating native hair follicle immune features and discussing their applications in disease modeling and regenerative medicine.

A man developed a rare blood vessel connection on his scalp after hair transplants, which was successfully treated with surgery.

This study demonstrated that a new non-invasive method for collecting and analyzing mouse hair follicles could replace traditional biopsy methods, providing advantages for translational research and routine applications.

This study assessed hair whorl characteristics in domestic dogs and found that simple whorls predominate, with tufted whorls more common in specific regions like elbows and chests, influenced by factors such as coat traits and source.

This study reviews current evidence on the role of ILC3s in the skin, highlighting their potential involvement in responding to microbiome changes such as those associated with acne and suggesting gaps in understanding their mechanisms.

In this study, researchers analyzed skin samples from Dorper sheep to identify 395 differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) linked to hair follicle growth phases, suggesting these lncRNAs may play a role in the regulation of hair shedding through pathways like estrogen and PI3K-Akt signaling.

This study observed that using moringa leaf extract in hair tonic reduced hair loss among the sampled students, with the average hair loss decreasing from 118.75 strands to 79.25 strands per day.

This study found that excessive heat caused the most significant structural changes in hair from Caucasian and Afro samples, especially when combined with other treatments like bleaching and straightening.

In this study, bleaching and perming were found to significantly reduce opiate concentrations in both spiked and naturally opiate-positive human hair samples.

This study found that hair dyes significantly affect DNA sequence analysis, with the organic extraction method performing better on hair shafts and the prepFiler kit yielding higher success for follicle-included samples.

This study developed a micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography method for determining minoxidil in Rogaine and generic products, offering a simple and efficient alternative to HPLC.

This study found that a high-power triple-wavelength diode laser effectively and safely treated facial hirsutism and follicular disorders in individuals with darker skin tones, showing significant hair reduction without adverse events.

This study found that standard decontamination procedures may not fully remove external contamination in post mortem hair specimens, complicating the interpretation of drug detection in such samples.

In this laboratory study, researchers developed a multifunctional organic hair cream with various natural extracts, finding that the cream with 15% extracts demonstrated higher physical stability, hair strength, and antimicrobial activity compared to lower concentration samples and synthetic alternatives.

This study found a significant shift to the telogen phase in the hair growth of children with classical marasmus compared to normal children, suggesting a connection to the chronicity of the condition.

This study presents a DNA-analytical method that can reliably identify and differentiate cashmere, fine wool, yak, and camel hair fibers in both untreated and processed samples.

This study identified distinct differences in metabolic pathways related to pattern baldness, with findings highlighting the androgen metabolic pathway in males and the estrogen plus arachidonic acid pathways in females using hair samples.

In this study, researchers found that the variability in growth factor expression, particularly TGFβ1, in PRP samples could influence patient responses to hair loss treatment with PRP therapy.

This article outlines a protocol for scanning electron microscopy of murine skin and primary keratinocyte monolayers, providing a guide for sample preparation and examination.

This study observed that pelage development in male blue foxes born in early June was more synchronized than those born in early May, with differences likely influenced by melatonin levels.

This review discusses the use of different biological samples, including hair, for drug testing and highlights the complexities and considerations involved in interpreting results; it reports no new findings.

Hair follicle samples effectively show how well the drug MK-0752 targets and engages with the Notch pathway.

This paper discusses various hair diseases and provides sample patient instruction sheets, offering a template for physicians to potentially integrate into their practice, but reports no new clinical results.

This collection of papers reviews recent research on women's skin, focusing on hormonal influences, environmental impacts, and specific skin disorders, with no new clinical results reported.

Combining RU58841 and minoxidil significantly increases hair growth.

This review discusses the connection between alopecia areata and trace element imbalances, noting deficiencies in elements like zinc and selenium, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study compared RNA-seq results from horse plucked-hair and skin-biopsy samples, finding that plucked hairs were enriched with hair-follicle keratinocytes, while biopsies showed enrichment for other cell types.
